as-salaamu 'alaikum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh,

Here's just a simple reminder about the Hadeeth:


أَفْضَلُ الصِّيَامِ بَعْدَ رَمَضَانَ شَهْرُ اللَّهِ الْمُحَرَّمُ وَأَفْضَلُ الصَّلَاةِ بَعْدَ الْفَرِيضَةِ صَلَاةُ اللَّيْلِ
- صحيح مسلم



“The best fasting after the month of Ramadan, is the month of Allah, al-Muharram. And the best prayer after the obligatory prayer is prayer at night.”
– Saheeh Muslim.

And also the hadeeth:


"وَسُئِلَ عَنْ صَوْمِ يَوْمِ عَاشُورَاءَ؟ فَقَالَ: "يُكَفِّرُ السَّنَةَ الْمَاضِيةَ"
- صحيح مسلم



“And he (sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) was asked about Fasting the day of 'Aashooraa' and he said: 'It expiates sins committed over the last year'.”
– Saheeh Muslim.
